Gerrard puts a heavy hand on Dibu Martínez’s team: fines for delay, unjustified yellow cards and even for showers without sandals

This note could be titled, The Gerrard Method. Is that, the former star who shone and left his mark in Liverpool in England wants to transfer to his players the same discipline that led him to lift the League Cup three times, three FA Cups, one Champions and one UEFA and play three times World Cup with the national team. But the coexistence manual he tries to impose in his second season as Aston Villa manager seems pretty stiff.

As the newest Paris Saint Germain manager did, Christophe GaltierGerrard wants to impose his brand on the English team to generate an orderly coexistence in the team that the Argentines play Emiliano Martínez, chosen deputy captain of the team, e Emiliano Buendìa. An example? Players will be fined £ 500 for being late for training, but the amount will increase at a rate of £ 200 per minute. An interest with scandalous levels of wear.

But players will not only have to be careful in everyday life, they will also have to beware of fouls during matches and also how to talk to the referee. The former English midfielder will fine any player who receives a card yellow for protesting with £ 200. In case the player sees the red card, you’ll have to invite the entire campus to eat within four weeks as a fine.

Gerrard became a leader for Liverpool after his death 17 years in the English team where he distinguished himself as a player but also as a person. Now the coach wants to transfer the discipline he has had in his career to the Aston Villa squad.

Fines continue: do not collect cutlery and plates from the table will be punished with 200 pounds, enter the showers without flip flops (100 lbs), don’t bring the cake for her birthday (£ 50 per day it takes) or just leaving a rubber pad in the wrong place (50 lbs).

But punctuality is what generates the most obsession in the coach and what will cost the players the most. In case the players arrive late for training will have to pay a fine of 500 pounds and it will also be grounds for infringement forget your training GPS (100 lbs). The player wants to put his squad in order to start a path that will lead him to the top of the Premier League.
